The winners of the league were Hellerup IK (HIK), who secured the overall league victory on 3 June 1928 against Østerbros BK at their home ground, and hence qualified for the promotion play-off matches against the lowest placed team in the 1927–28 KBUs Mesterskabsrække, BK Fremad Amager.[9][5][10] This was the club's second overall tier 2 Copenhagen league championship, having won the league six years earlier.[9][11][5][10] For the third consecutive season, Østerbros BK finished as the runners-up in the league;[8] in 1928, the profits from the organisation of the matches involving the Denmark national football team were redistributed to the highest ranking clubs under the Copenhagen FA – primarily to the largest clubs in the KBUs Mesterskabsrække and secondarily to the clubs located in the KBUs A-række.[12]

Halfway through the season, Østerbros BK were leading the KBU league with 10 points, while the club in the competition located farthest to the north, Hellerup IK, was in second place with 9 points for 5 matches after 4 wins and 1 draw, and with 20 goals scored and 6 against them.[14][15] Prior to one of the season's last league matches on 3 June 1928 11:00 CEST at Hellerup Sportspark (also referred to as "Banen ved Phistersvej" or simply "H.I.K.'s Bane"), both competitors for the league championship this season, Hellerup IK and Østerbros BK, were undefeated in the league.[5][9][16] Throughout the season, the two clubs had followed each other; Hellerup IK had 15 points for 8 matches (one draw against KFUMs BK in the fall of 1927), while Østerbros BK had 16 points for 9 matches due to two draws (1–1 against BK Viktoria and 2–2 against B 1908).[16][16] Hence, Hellerup IK could settle with a tie in the forthcoming match as the team (playing in a kit featuring white shirts and blue shorts) were expecting to win their last match in the season against Valby BK, who had lost a significant number of matches,[16][17] the season's top league match, which was attended by 4-500 spectators and refereed by Lauritz Andersen (affiliated with BK Velo), would secure either club the overall league title of the season.[9]

In the first half of the game, the away team, Østerbros BK, had the upper hand, but the Ø.B. players were not able to take advantage of their chances and score against the home team.[9][18] Instead the H.I.K. centerforward, Reinholdt Sylvander (still with injuries from a game against B 1908), used a momentum during the first half to dribble through the opponent's defence, but as he was about make a shot inside the penalty area, he was turned upside down by defender Aage Andersen — an offence the referee deemed illegal and the Hellerup team was awarded a penalty kick.[9][18] The penalty kick was quickly executed by Ejvind Andersen and this goal ended up being the only one during the entire match,[9][18] during the second half, the teams were more even, and both the Hellerup IK and Østerbros BK forwards had several close attempts.[9][18] Hence Hellerup IK secured the club's second KBUs A-række league championship, for the first time in six years, while Østerbros BK for the second consecutive season finished in second place.[9][5][10] The regular players featured in the Hellerup-team's line-ups during the season included the following the goalkeeper Henry Schnabelrauch (attached to BK Fremad Amager the previous season, making him debut on 28 August 1927); the defenders Poul Petersen, P. Kjærgaard and Alf Nilsson; the midfielders William Kirkland, Knud Sørensen, Louis Olsen and Arnold Jensen; the forwards Ejvind "Møllen" Andersen, Mogens Larsen, Reinholdt Sylvander, Oscar Olsen, Ejnar Nilsson, Claude Vincent and Ejnar Rørby.[9]

The league match between BK Standard and Valby BK played on 23 October 1927, 12:00 at Sundby Idrætspark ended with a 2–0 victory to BK Standard. The second half of the match was not played, because it was abandoned by the Valby BK players due to the severe weather conditions (rain and storm) and the effect on the football field, that had been ongoing since 7 o'clock in the morning;[19] in the week up to the match, several of the Valby BK players had been sick in bed, and therefore found it reasonable to abandon the remaining part of the match.[20]Kjøbenhavns Boldspil-Union (KBU) later changed the score to 0–0! and awarded BK Standard the game as a 2 points victory. Several other matches in the lower levels across the Copenhagen area, that took place on the same day, were also either cancelled or abandoned for the same reasons.[19]

Unlike the 1927–28 KBUs Mesterskabsrække, the majority of the league matches of the KBUs A-række took place at the club's home/away fields or at a neutral ground located in Copenhagen. Several league matches of importance at the very end of the season were scheduled to be played at Københavns Idrætspark with the purpose of promoting the second tier league championship and at a lower entrance fee at the gates, the promotion/relegation play-off matches for the team with the least points in the league were cancelled this season.[5][6] The winners of the 1927–28 KBUs B-række, Boldklubben Ydun (of Frederiksberg), were automatically promoted to the 1928–29 season of the KBUs A-Række,[21] after BK Velo pulled their senior men's team from the league following the completion of the 1925–26 season, the second-tier KBU league was left with only 11 teams, which would be expanded to 12 teams beginning with the 1928–29 season.[21]

A total of 11 teams were contesting the league, all 11 sides from the 1926–27 season. No team was promoted from the 1926–27 KBUs B-række or relegated from the 1926–27 KBUs Mesterskabsrække, every team played one game against each other team, either one at home, away or on a neutral field. Teams received two points for a win and one point for a draw. If two or more teams were tied on points, places were determined by head-to-head points and goal ratio, the team with the most points were crowned winners of the league and entered a promotion play-off.

†: The match between Handelsstandens BK and BK Borup played on 15 March 1928, 13:00 at Fælledparken originally ended in a tie (1–1), but Handelsstandens BK appealed the first goal in match by BK Borup, and won the appeal, resulting in winning the match 1–0.‡: The second half of the match between BK Standard and Valby BK played on 23 October 1927, 12:00 at Sundby Idrætspark was not played. The match was abandoned at the score of 2–0 by the Valby BK players due to the severe weather conditions. Kjøbenhavns Boldspil-Union (KBU) later changed the score to 0–0! and awarded BK Standard the game as a 2 points victory.

The term Danish Realm refers to the relationship between Denmark proper, the Faroe Islands and Greenland—three countries constituting the Kingdom of Denmark. The legal nature of the Kingdom of Denmark is fundamentally one of a sovereign state. The Faroe Islands and Greenland have been part of the Crown of Denmark since 1397 when the Kalmar Union was ratified, legal matters in The Danish Realm are subject to the Danish Constitution. Beginning in 1953, state law issues within The Danish Realm has been governed by The Unity of the Realm, a less formal name for The Unity of the Realm is the Commonwealth of the Realm. In 1978, The Unity of The Realm was for the first time referred to as rigsfællesskabet. The name caught on and since the 1990s, both The Unity of The Realm and The Danish Realm itself has increasingly been referred to as simply rigsfællesskabet in daily parlance. The Danish Constitution stipulates that the foreign and security interests for all parts of the Danish Realm are the responsibility of the Danish government, the Faroes received home rule in 1948 and Greenland did so in 1979. In 2005, the Faroes received a self-government arrangement, and in 2009 Greenland received self rule, the Danish Realms unique state of internal affairs is acted out in the principle of The Unity of the Realm. This principle is derived from Article 1 of the Danish Constitution which specifies that constitutional law applies equally to all areas of the Danish Realm, the Constitutional Act specifies that sovereignty is to continue to be exclusively with the authorities of the Realm. The language of Denmark is Danish, and the Danish state authorities are based in Denmark, the Kingdom of Denmarks parliament, with its 179 members, is located in the capital, Copenhagen. Two of the members are elected in each of Greenland and the Faroe Islands. The Government ministries are located in Copenhagen, as is the highest court, in principle, the Danish Realm constitutes a unified sovereign state, with equal status between its constituent parts. Devolution differs from federalism in that the powers of the subnational authority ultimately reside in central government. The Self-Government Arrangements devolves political competence and responsibility from the Danish political authorities to the Faroese, the Faroese and Greenlandic authorities administer the tasks taken over from the state, enact legislation in these specific fields and have the economic responsibility for solving these tasks. The Danish government provides a grant to the Faroese and the Greenlandic authorities to cover the costs of these devolved areas. The 1948 Home Rule Act of the Faroe Islands sets out the terms of Faroese home rule, the Act states. the Faroe Islands shall constitute a self-governing community within the State of Denmark. It establishes the government of the Faroe Islands and the Faroese parliament. The Faroe Islands were previously administered as a Danish county, the Home Rule Act abolished the post of Amtmand and these powers were expanded in a 2005 Act, which named the Faroese home government as an equal partner with the Danish government
